St George's church
The construction of St George's church > Link started in the 12th century, with south porch and aisle > Link added in the 14th century. Despite renovation work that was carried out in the 19th century, the church has retained much of its medieval atmosphere > Link. The C15 benches > Link have carved and pierced decorations in a variety of patterns, and poppyhead bench ends as well as carved figures on the arm rests, the latter much defaced. The octagonal font > Link dates from the 14th century and some of the medieval glass > Link has remained in the east window of the south aisle. The rood screen > Link is C15 and retains some of its original colouring. The panels depict the 12 apostles holding their recognised portion of the Creed, with the 4 Latin Doctors painted on the doors. Three return stalls > Link rest against the screen on the chancel side. The pulpit > Link is Jacobean. The chamber organ > Link is believed to have been made by JC Bishop of London in about 1830.
